“Dunkin’ Brands and our franchisees take great pride in our brands’ heritage of supporting the brave members of the military who keep our country safe," said Paul Charboneau, Sr. Design Specialist at Dunkin’ Brands and Chair of the Company’s Veterans Employee Resource Group. "We continue to demonstrate our enduring appreciation for our Veterans and active duty military through programs like ‘Coffee for our Troops,’ where we send Dunkin’ coffee to military service members overseas every week.”

Through the “Coffee for Our Troops” program the company has donated more than 300,000 pounds of coffee to troops deployed overseas since 2003. The program is run by Dunkin' Brands' Veterans Employee Resource Group (ERG). This group leads efforts around veterans programming for Dunkin’ Brands employees including supporting military charities and inviting speakers to educate employees on the issues important to veterans today. For example, the group helped Dunkin' Brands pick Homes for Our Troops as the recipient of a $10,000 donation.

The company also provides employment opportunities through their Veteran's Integration and Internship Program. They provide practical training as well as career events to help prepare veterans with resume writing and interview preparation skills.
